Teddy Atlas, a renowned trainer and analyst, had some advice for interim WBC interim middleweight and bantamweight titleholder David Benavides.
"I understand that people don't like to hear that opinion, but a fighter has to have a certain mindset - to be ready to fight everybody. A manager, on the other hand, should be saying, 'No, no, no, no, I'm going to step in.' If I was Benavides' manager, there's no way I'd let him face Morrell. It's too dangerous. I'm not saying he can't beat Morrell, but the risks are too great and the benefits don't justify it," Atlas told Pro Box TV.
